OMG this is sooo perfect as I just found out I'll need to be back in NYC around then! This will be some comfort after the loss of Ari.

Shirley, please tell Ana & Gina & Anne (will she be there?) that I so look forward to seeing and hearing them again. Will Vice Cooler be drumming again? Think he did a terrific job their last time they came here!

Typical regards,

Lydia

we all feel totally devastated with the news about Ari.  we have huge respect and love for her - she made a massive difference in the world and gives us all inspiration.

we do have some good news: we are playing a special show at MoMA, New York next month with Kathleen Hanna DJing and two really great exhibitions.

An Evening with The Raincoats

Saturday, November 20, 2010

Museum of Modern Art (MOMA)
11 W 53rd St.
New York NY 10019

PopRally invites you to a special performance by the legendary post-punk group The Raincoats, presented in conjunction with a pair of MoMA exhibitions featuring influential women artists. Kathleen Hanna will kick the event off with a DJ session.

 

Pictures by Women: A History of Modern Photography presents a selection of outstanding photographs by women artists, charting the medium’s 170-year history. Counter Space: Design and the Modern Kitchen recognizes the prominence of women who have critically addressed kitchen culture and myths. Both exhibitions are associated with MoMA’s publication Modern Women: Women Artists at The Museum of Modern Art.

  The Raincoats, formed by Ana da Silva and Gina Birch in the late 1970s, created a sound, inspired by punk and rock music, that became a significant source of inspiration for future of generations of feminist musicians. Kathleen Hanna was a founding member of Bikini Kill, co-creator of the zine Riot Grrrl, and lead singer of the dance-punk band Le Tigre.

  From 8:30 to 10:00 p.m., enjoy an exclusive exhibition viewing and open bar during Kathleen Hanna's DJ set; The Raincoats’ performance follows at 10:00 p.m.

Tickets: $23 available from Friday 29 October and you need to register first for an invitation: http://moma.org/poprally/mailinglist

Ana and Gina are looking forward to seeing some typical girls!
